Consider adding GOODSEARCH (supported by Google) to your desktop.  By selecting CHADD as your charity of choice, we will earn 1 cent for every search you make on GOODSEARCH.  Now that may not sound like a lot, but if 20 of us made 100 searches a month, it would add up to $20 a month to CHADD. That’s $140 annually! AND then let’s say that 100 of the other regions did the same.  That would be $14,000, annually!  Wouldn’t that be nice!    All of that earned simply by doing what we all do anyway, search the net.    Here’s the link, check it out.  It only takes a few minutes to download, select CHADD, and get started!
